Hi!

It looks like a bug to me, your configuration is all right. I will need to make a few tests on this on my local server. I will apply it on your live site once it’s fixed, before I upload it to codecanyon. (in 24-48 hours max)
Thank you for reporting this!

Hi!

I just managed to save the settings without problems. I’m using google chrome, maybe it was a browser issue? Or might have been the server overloaded at the time. I’m not sure, but I managed to drag the property custom post type, save it and search for properties on the fronted, I guess that’s good.

The width is not adjustable because it fits the container elements width. So if the search is in a 300 pixel wide container it will fit to that and becomes 300 pixels wide.

I will try to explain how that particular search works on the demo page. What you see there is a section, which is divided into 2 equal pieces, each piece is half of the width of the section. The section width is not set to an exact value, because it’s different for each device (desktop, mobile etc..)
This is achieved with a theme shortcode. We are using the district theme, and it has these shortcodes to divide the content into colums. So after dividing that section into 2 colums, one of them holds the search shortcode, the other one holds the results shortcode for that search instance. Your theme might not support these colums, so I will try to make an example code of how to achieve this without the theme shortcodes. Take a look at this code:

http://pastebin.com/MeFufUV1

If you paste this code to the post/page editor – not the visual editor, you must switch to the Text editor – then after saving you will possibly see a search box that’s half the width of the content.

Now after switching the layout mode to blocking (see link in the previous post), if you type in something the results should appear next to the search box, instead under it.

The pagination style is called the “Isotopic” layout. So if on the layout options panel you change it, then you should see that layout. http://i.imgur.com/coA58ga.png

Let me know how it goes. I hope I didn’t confuse you. The search has a lot of options, it takes some time to get used to it.

I might not answer today, I got some real life stuff to take care of. Good luck with the experiments.

Thanks. I got the details, edited out your post to prevent security risks.

I will take a look at it ass soon as I can. Might take a day, I’m bit overwhelmed with other tickets as well.

Hi!

If you mean the red search bar on the front page then.

1. On the theme selector you should select the “Demo – Home isotopic” it’s somewhere around the bottom of the list. Wait a few seconds as it loads.

2. Save the search. It should look then exactly like that.

If you want to move the results from under the search to a different position, there is a description on how to do that in the documentation:

Hi!

Unfortunately it’s working for me on both test servers without issues, but I still think it’s theme though, we must have different servers.

Can you provide temporary ftp and administrator access to the website? All I can do is turn on the debug mode and see if there are any errors there. I feel like the saving process is intercepted by a hidden error.

[Ernest Marcinko]

We still have customers for with older browsers yet (ie7 and 8). It’s deprecated, so it’s going to get removed in the upcoming version and replaced by html5 placeholder.

Hi!

The force inline styles options was disabled on the compatibility options panel. It should work now.

[Ernest Marcinko]

I don’t think that’s the problem. Are these multisite sites or each one is an individual wordpress installation?

Since the search is returning something, it means that it’s most likely a configuration issue.

What type of content are you searching? If you create a new search form and try that on one of the sites, is it working?

[Ernest Marcinko]

Yes, most likely then. Can you attach a copy of the theme? I might be able to reproduce the issue on my local test server.

[Ernest Marcinko]

Hi!

Try the following:

function asp_mimic_shortcode( $atts ) {
     return do_shortcode('[wpdreams_ajaxsearchpro id=1]');
}
add_shortcode('wpdreams_ajaxsearchlite', 'asp_mimic_shortcode');

You might have to change the id, but I think this should work.

Hi!

Were the results showing before?

Nothing on the backend area is saving, or only the custom post types? Is there any error code showing up in the search bar?

You should try disabling all plugins and switching the theme to default to see if it works then. If not, then it’s most likely an incompatibility with the server configuration. If yes, then it’s a plugin/theme interference.

Never encountered this issue before, so this might be a new bug or something else.

[Ernest Marcinko]

Oh sorry, that’s not what you meant. It is on the Layout options, but under the Behaviour tab: http://i.imgur.com/IVRbwhU.png

Hi!

Nice job there. Yesterday I was thinking about this whole integration thing. I think I know what should I do – an API for the search. If I managed to create a documented API, then the integration to the default wordpress search would be so easy. To be honest the search code is still too messy. So many things had changed from previous versions and I had to maintain the backwards compatibility – that was a pain in the ass and a lots of unnecessary code. And of course my skills have also improved, so there is some nice code mixed with worse. (mostly on the backend)

Still, an API would open up the plugin features for devs like you, and perhaps my future work would be much much easier in terms of integrating new features.

Thanks for the kind words, and you indeed did a nice job integrating the search this fast. I don’t meet developers in this forum too often.

Hi!

You don’t need to modify any files for that. You can chage it on the layout options panel: http://i.imgur.com/mag9gTa.png
